While in Hawaii- all you felt like wearing were your most favorite summer staples ( comfy tees, cut off shorts, pretty dresses and two piece bandeau bathing suits!) .. as I packed my summer staples, I also had to pack bold color pieces… I mean it was only appropriate! So I made sure to throw my fave bold colored pieces into my suitcase because I knew the Maui backdrop would be the perfect complement.
As someone who has always had a tanned skin complexion, I’ve been more drawn to wearing brighter, bolder, fun colored pieces ever since I can remember! I guess it just made me feel like my skin would stand out against those pretty hues like coral, teal, and neon yellow or chartreuse.
There’s always a color like neon yellow/chartreuse that’s my go-to color for any pick-me-up-day!
What’s your fave bold color and how do you show off that color in your wardrobe?
Excited to also share with you guys that I’ll be judging a contest hosted by Woolite on Polyvore, where you too can show off your favorite bright color item in your wardrobe!
Enter by making a set HERE
Contest ends 10/15 at 11:59pm EST
I’ll be choosing a winner; winner will win $500 visa gift card ( so jealous!)
My set is below:
Winner of the Polyvre x Woolite contest is:
ps. Let me know if you guys would like to see a Polyvore set/collage like the one above (once or twice a week) after my outfit photos inspired by that day’s look….similar to this post! Leave a comment with yay or nay!

I’ve always wanted to wear bright yellow or chartreuse, but I have super pale skin so it tends to make me look really washed out.
The colour is gorgeous on you.

Great outfit, love your shorts and I love the Polyvore collage, I think it would be great if you made one every week, it kind of puts everything together to create an inspiration board..love it. By the way, I tried to use Polyvore a few months ago and just could not figure it out. How do you add pictures to the collage??
a bright yellow peplum? cut off shorts? worn in chucks? YES PLEASE!!!

I love your outfit, it has an effortless and stylish feel. As someone with an olive complexion I too agree that bold colors look great against deep skin tones, although my summer glow is quickly fading. The ombre hair looks great on you too!
